Introduction

Nobody wants to be the organiser who got the maths wrong. The house is usually the biggest bill - then cocktails, spa, taxis and the little extras stack up fast.
Pin down beds, nights and one or two activities first and you have most of the weekend costed. Every house listing shows nightly rate, minimum stay, cleaning fee and deposit before you enquire; activity pages show typical per-person prices. Run the budget calculator with your group size before you post numbers in the group chat.
1.How do hen party weekend costs usually split?
Accommodation is roughly 40–60% of the total, activities 20–35%, with food, travel and extras making up the rest.
Run our budget calculator with your group size, nights and city before you share numbers in the group chat. That stops the awkward “how much each?” thread going in circles.

Browse hen do activities in your city and confirm whether drinks or materials are included before you pay supplier deposits.
4.What might a hen weekend cost for 12 guests over two nights?
A mid-range house at £50 pp per night (£1,200 stay total), plus one cocktail class at £35 pp and a spa block at £55 pp, lands around £140–160 pp before meals and taxis.
Your city and activity picks will move that number. Run the calculator with your actual shortlist rather than treating this as a fixed quote.
5.Do you pay Hen Hideaways or the suppliers directly?
Package companies bundle house, activities and sometimes transport through one organiser and one deposit. If that company goes bust, the whole weekend is at risk. Hen Hideaways helps you find vetted suppliers and book direct, so payments go to the house owner and each activity provider instead of one middleman.
Deposits and balances go to the property owner and each activity supplier, not into one package company holding the whole weekend. For collecting group deposits fairly, see the payment planner.
